More on: ahavajerusalem...
A growing number of ministers have been writing to me in recent months, telling of their concern for parishioners who are simply giving up. One minister wrote, “I see my church members trying so hard to cope with problems in their marriages and pressures in their personal lives. Just when it seems victory is within reach, they stumble and fall. Good, honest Christians are so often overwhelmed by guilt and condemnation, it causes despair. And when they can’t live up to their own expectations - when they fall back into sin and get involved - they decide to give up. Few know how to pull out of a moral tailspin.”
I agree with the assessment of these ministers. Growing numbers of Christians are at the breaking point. None of the talk about giving up has to do with the Lord. Few Christians would even entertain thoughts of quitting on their love for Jesus. Most despairing Christians think only of giving up on themselves. You hear it so often now, “I just can’t go on anymore. I can’t make it, even though I try so hard. It’s hopeless! Why try?”
I hear some ministers today who continually preach only a positive message. To hear them tell it, every Christian is receiving miracles - everybody is getting instant answers to prayer - everybody is feeling good, living good, and the whole world is bright and rosy. I love to hear that kind of preaching, because I really wish all those good and healthy things for God’s people. But that’s not the way things are for a great number of very honest, sincere Christians. How sad to hear such shallow theology being pushed from pulpits today. It’s an insult to a lowly Jesus, who became poor, who died a failure in the eyes of the world. It is the kind of materialistic preaching that has so ill-prepared an entire generation to endure any kind of pain - to be content with such things as they have - to be abased and not always abounding. Serving God becomes a kind of Olympic race in which everyone must strive for the golf medals.
No wonder our young people give up in defeat. They can’t live up to the image created by religion, of a happy-go-lucky, rich, successful, always positive-thinking Christian. Their world is not that idealistic. They look in a mirror reflecting a face covered with ugly pimples. They live with heartbreaks, hour-by-hour crises and horrible family problems. Their friends are hooked and dying on all sides. They look into the uncertain future, frightened and worried; loneliness, fear and depression hound them daily.
Positive thinking won’t make their problems go away. Confessing these problems don’t really exist doesn’t change a thing. These “apostles of the positive” dare not exclude the Gethsemane experiences of life. The cup of pain, the hour of isolation, and the night of confusion were all part of the Master’s lifestyle. Our great achievements, our successes, ought to take place at Gethsemane, not Fort Knox!

About David Wilkerson
David Wilkerson was the Founding Pastor of Times Square Church in New York City. He was called to New York in 1958 to minister to gang members and drug addicts, as told in the best-selling book, The Cross and the Switchblade.
In 1987, David Wilkerson returned to "the crossroads of the world" to establish Times Square Church. As a pastor of the church, he faithfully led this congregation, delivering powerful biblical messages that encourage righteous living and complete reliance on God.
David Wilkerson had a strong burden to encourage and strengthen pastors throughout the world. From 1999 to 2008, he traveled around the globe holding conferences for Christian ministers.
You can't imagine how much your channel is a blessing to me. Many sermons here to say like how to renew your strength in Christ, God who restores among others,..helped me so much as I have been struggling with the powers of darkness...this one also has encouraged me to go on with the Lord Jesus in this battle. Glory to God. God bless you.
i know it's kinda off topic but do anybody know a good website to watch new tv shows online?
@Brooks Salvador Flixportal :)
@Legend Trevor thanks, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I really appreciate it!
@Brooks Salvador Happy to help :)
@@sallysailor5642 am fine and alive . Our Lord Jesus gave me victory over those severe attacks from the devil, i testify in Jesus' name.
David Wilkerson I know you are at home with the Lord now, but your sermons and encouragement are still such a gift from God. Hallelujah! Amen.
The problem that comes out of nowhere; you can't explain it; nobody can help you...all you can do is hide or run.
Pr Wilkerson understands this certain kind of condition very well. I've been in it for years now. I just started listening to his sermons; he was a wise preacher, very astute, loved the Lord and his brothers and sisters in Christ with all his heart. I learned the same week that I discovered his teachings ( just last week ) that he had been killed in a car accident many years ago, which saddened me greatly. He is with our Lord in heaven, hallelujah.😔
AMEN HALLELUJAH SEND THIS TO MY NIECE IN SETTLE WASHINGTON LORD OPEN UP OUR EARS. IN JESUS NAME AMEN
THANK GOD FOR MORE WORD OF GOD GOD IS GOOD JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
This is 2023 and this message is a confirmation! Thank you God, Thank Jesus, Thank you Holy Spirit! 🙏🏼
I was 5 years of chronic illness. Semi Housebound, lost my health, job, finances and my fiance left me. I couldn't even look at electronic screen for 5 minutes, or hold a 10-minute conversation.
But God did an amazing work. And if he can do this, he can do it in you also. 😇🙏
I now have a Christian Channel where I encourage people and show them what God did in my life and that there is hope for you also.
*Keep believing even when it's hard* 🙏❤️🙌
*All things are possible with God*
Oh yes, my friend showed me your Chanel and I followed you. God bless you brother you keep on sharing the good News! Blessings in Christ. P.S. He did something similar for me Hallelujah Praise 🙌 The Lord
Could you publish your channel here?
Many thanks.
Amen! So happy for you! I claim Shalom of the LORD and nothing missing and nothing broken by Jesus' Blood in His Name. AMEN!!!
Wonderful! He did a work in you only that would do. Praise the Lord

David Wilkerson a true Watchman on the Wall. God Bless everyone here.. Stand on the rock of Jesus Christ and Never Leave. Glory to God and All that is Holy
Likewise blessings Amen
Not giving up at all but health issues has had me a little sad along with mom in nursing home went through Covid. Just need a beautiful Spiritual boost through Pastor Brother David that I know he always delivers. Truth Amen
@@anndebanders482 I'll pray sister. The Lord has you in His righteous right hand and under the shadow of His almighty wings. 🙌🙏
Maybe back then they did not need the message so much, but I am telling you today we do. Hope you are enjoying heaven, man of God.
This message was needed generations ago as much as it is needed today. Graciously, generations ago, they did not know of what is faced today. Yet it was their actions then, that set what is happening today.
Yes, sometimes I wonder why the LORD had me born in this time. The only answer I have received thus far is what Mordecai said to Esther. "Maybe you were born for a time such as this". And I remember her response.."If I perish, I perish".
Yes, Pastor David, these words of yours spoken so long ago..still resonate today! I sure you had no idea that your messages would still help HIS saints, even after you left us! Thank you for being true to HIS SPIRIT!😊
@@txwarriorbride5112 that is exactly why you are born for this time, for God's purpose of which. Your purpose as is all of us, is to have an intimate relationship with our God and savior. Look to His commandments.
@@donlute3444 Just opened up the WORD tonight before sleeping, and guess what it was?.😂😂Yep. Esther!
Just a coincidence I am sure!😂
@@txwarriorbride5112 maybe. It's my understanding that there are no coincidences. All things are ordained for God's purpose. I'm offten returned to Amos. I have been directed to Matthew many times until I finally seen what God was showing me.
I'm laying here bedridden for over 2 years now. I've lost my job, my savings, my home, many of my belongings, my good health insurance, many friends and my cat died last month. I live in debilitating orthostatic pain that cripples me daily. I've been to countless doctors and have been dismissed over and over. This started after I was hit on my head by my car trunk.
Father You are Jehovah Rapha - our Healer. I love You. You are a good Father, full of mercy. Please heal me in Jesus' name. Amen
I needed this message.. I have been in despair. The enemy has been whispering lies telling me to end my life
Shelly, I hope you are safe and well now. God loves you very much. I have been there too and it is still a struggle most days as my mind is in turmoil, but I know my Father loves me. I threw all the tablets I had away because I knew I couldn't trust myself just in case. I can't trust myself but I know God is totally trustworthy. All Love to you. God Bless.
I always get so emotional when I listen to David Wilkerson. He's a true man of God. He helps always.
Jesus give me the strength to carry on one day at a time 🙏😇❣️
Every message of David is so good.
Be blessed in Christ.
I met him and I heard and saw Christ in my ward heart as a child who was abused. This man knew the troubled child, through Christ in Him speaks to many. We need more people like that.
I sobbed (am sobbing) so much....relate 100% and relevant/timely...bless you David Wilkerson ✨🌿💗💗
Prise God. Be blessed.
God knows exactly where we are, and how to get us where He wants us to be..O God thank you for Pastor Dave's msg...Yur still using his precious life....Thank you Jesus for all you brought him / Sis. Gwen through...Hes with you forever now.
David Wilkerson is my favorite🙏♥️😊🌿
He went to be with the Lord to early. But his sermons are still alive thru the Holy Spirit today!
I needed this message, I have been in a hurricane of a storm for 10 years every day. Thank you Pastor David for showing me that God will deliver me from my troubles and that the Holy Spirit is here living inside me to comfort me.
Beneath the cross of JESUS
I fain would take my stand
The shadow of a mighty rock
Whitin a weary land
O safe and happy shelter!
O refuge tried and sweet!
O trysting place where heaven's love
And heven's justice meet!
It's incredible how relevant this Man of God's messages are. Thank you Holy Spirit....
Problems seem to literally be growing from every single angle possible.
I needed this pastor David. God bless you up there in heaven x
This was many many years ago but it is speaking to me. Satan attacked me the same way. Your speaking to me in oct 16 2020
Praise God. Be blessed in Christ.
Yes!! Scream out, "God help!!". This is exactly right. Call out to God. No matter what you're going through. This is the only way. Turn to Him.
Such a beautiful message from Rev Wilkerson. What a legacy he left us! Proof positive that 1 person Can make a difference for the LORD. And for this world!😇
*We the true body of Christ as well as the bride of Christ needed to hear this!!! Thank you HEAVENLY FATHER for this message you spoke to us thru your sweet willing vessel DAVID WILKERSON.
JESUS IS ADONI/LORD AND THERE IS NO OTHER ELOHIM!! BUT THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC N JACOB LET EVERYTHING WITH BREATH PRAISE HIS BEAUTIFUL HOLY ZAVAJAVI name*
*LORD JESUS CHRIST*
Thank you Lord! ❤️🙏🏼🙌🏼
This message was so needed, thank you Jesus. You are our beautiful, loving Savior. We praise you, God! ♥️💜✝️
Thank God for DRW. When I need something, encouragement, guidance, I go to his sermons.
A much needed message I so needed to hear. I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from all my fear. Praise the Lord Thank you for your Word that sets us free!!
Jesus is coming back
I feel exactly this way most of the time. Yet I know God is in control. I need God's strength. Sometimes sometimes I just feel like laying down until I die. I'm very tired. Yet I'm still waiting in our Lord. I'm trying to survive one day at a time.
NKJV Psalm 130: 5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
And in His word I do hope.
6 My soul waits for the Lord
More than those who watch for the morning-
Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.
7 O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is mercy,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
8 And He shall redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
Hope in the Lord Sra. Rivas
Can I ask how you been?
I've been alone for 51 years and praying for a godly Christian husband for over 10 years. I've been in constant debilitating excruciating unrelenting pain for nearly 29 years. That's right. 29 years. I'm.allergic to just about everything, even water makes me feel sick. Because of multiple heart conditions, my body is inoperable. I know GOD still does miracles. I need to see that again, just to function. 🙏🙏🙏 I have nobody. My children don't talk to me.
🙏
❤💗💟❣praying for u💓
Sadly two of us.... Ephesians 3:20. Be Blessed ❤
Father, he says it so well. Thank you for his life. This needy was blessed.
Glory to GOD it's an on time message from the LORD
Yes, this is food to my soul
This dude was amazing!
Brother Wilkerson is the only pastor in the US l trust. His messages are being divinely sent to me at just the right moment. Our Wonderful Father uses TH-cam as well. Spurgeon is the other. They are both still alive even though gone from earth. WE ALL SAY IN UNISON...HALLELUJAH TO THE KING OF KINGS!
Every day...
Thank you Lord. Amen
Thank You LORD help us to stand strong and faithful to your word that you will do what you said you will. Remove fear from all hearing this message. Amen
I feel like giving up right now, turning away. I’ve been serving the Lord for a year and a couple months, almost a year and six months, but the Lord opened my eyes to a lot of things and he brought me back to him as my first love. I am 60 days back with him. Today. I love him so so so so so so so much. I am praying that grows me repentance! I can’t wait to see Jesus soon. But I know I have to wait. I’m praying God grant me repentance my flesh, I could feel it in my heart. He’s giving me a new heart but it’s trying to come back the old heart He gave me a new heart
Be blessed in Christ, He is faithful to finish the work he began in you.
@@ahavajerusalem thank you!!!
I HAD fainted(given up)...UNLESS I HAD BELIEVED TO SEE THE GOODNESS OF THE LORD IN THE LAND OF THE LIVING!!!
HELP US ALL HOLY GHOST!!! IN JESUS' NAME. AMEN
@@rosemarieharris9308 yes yes amen
I've walked away from the Lord 3 times. Believe me seriously, it's not worth it. Stay with Him, hold tight, dont ever give up. In these days we face are yet still easy. In the time that comes, and it will come, the only solid thing you will have is Jesus. All else will fail you and leave you hurting. Now is the time to place all your trust in Him and not waver at all.
A real gem , this message is. Thank you Lord!
I trust in you father God 🙏🏻
God know I love the Lord his word. Thank you for your sacrifice to share these sermon. Glory to go God Hallelujah PRAISE the Lord Jesus. Amen Amen Amen
I really needed to hear this message! Thank you for your faithfulness!
I've been struggling a lot recently. I'm 24 and on my first job. I'm a teacher and I do online classes from 8am to 5pm. After classes, I cannot stop working, I must correct tests, prepare things, and so on... I feel the pressure from my boss and parents, and I feel like it's too much.
I love the Lord, sincerely. I have tasted His goodness, faithfulness, and mercy, but I haven't heard anything from Him. I read my Bible every day, and I try to obey Him and pray...
Blessings from Chile brothers in Christ
Dear Alvaro, the Lord be with you.
The Lord does'nt work like a microwave. Sometimes God allows trouble waters in our lives that we come to realize we can depend on Him. He may not come when we call Him but He's always on time, and always there to get us through the storm. These past two years have been a storm nobody saw coming but , He never loses a battle or waste one either. Hold on to His Never Changing Hand.
The mouthpiece of the Ruach Hakodesh is in heaven, but his sermon is still helping us, today years later. HalleluYah.
Hallelujah!!! Wonderful awesome building message!
Iv been in that pit many times many times I’ve been led out I went blind one eye at a time literally my eyes restored one eye at a time I went to the brink of destruction brought back fall again I know who to call in the day of trouble thank you 🙏 father for always making a way today I have great faith and trust I know whom I have believed

How much do I miss David Wilkerson and Holy Spirit speaking thru him so many practical and Holy Spirit filled messages !!’
My husband was Spirit-filled & Spirit-led and had very good common sense & practical Holy Spirit-filled messages that he preached. They were convicting, soul-searching, uplifting, encouraging, helpful. He preached the unadulterated Word of God. He is at Home with Jesus now. Plan on seeing him soon.
🌿🌾💐🌫️God is love 🌫️💐🌾🌿
Thank you!
Praise God I've had times the enemy tried to convince me to give up, to go back fully to the old ways give up the Holy Ghost but thanks be to God, by His strength I've not completely gave up
BLESSINGS MY FAMILY
And. So. It. Was. ! Needed this. To confirm. I'm. Trusting. In Him. Leaning on. The. Rock. Cause the war. To. Cease ! Give. me. Peace. And restored. Health. Out of. All my trouble. !
thank you Jesus. Thank you Holy Spirit.
That still small! Voice. Spoke. I will. Heal you. Its. Different from. When you're. Reading. Or listening to. Scripture. Its. A. Special. Voice. A way. He. The. Holy. Spirit. Speaks. When I'm still. Struggling thru. This. I. Remind myself. Of the. Way. He. Spoke. In a. Gentle. Way. And. It comforts me. !
Pr Wilkerson has a warning about listening to a still small voice in one of his sermons that I listened to recently.
I cried out to the Lord until someone called the police and they locked me up for a psyche evaluation.
What's happened since then? I could do the very same thing, easily.
I’m so tired. I keep hearing messages from Christian leaders saying we need to be fighters for the huge spiritual battles to come... That’s what I’ve been doing, an all out sprint now for a loooonnnng time... I’m spent. No fight left. God how much more before you take us home? I have nothing left to give you of my body and heart. 😔
Dear sister .. There comes a time where we have to just trust and let the Lord fight for us. I believe that for many spiritfilled Christians this time is and has been the most difficult of all. It definetly have been for me, and I feel completely drained physically , mentally and spiritually. We have only left to cry out to the Lord for mercy and deliverance from our enemies (spiritual) . Allthough tired , I fully trust that God will step down and fight for us as we hold on to him in faith. I pray that he will do just that for you and lead you onto green pastures once again 🙏 Amen
Thank you I have always been blessed by his preaching.
I’m there! I remember thinking as a child, “God if I was like Job, I would still trust you!”
Going through the worst time of my life and no one to help me. It seems there’s no way out. I feel God has left me which I know is deception. I have felt like giving up. Just as Job stated: “Cursed be the day I was born.”
Please pray for my son and I. I am feeling pain in every area of my life!
A part of me thank God for trusting me to suffer, but the other part just can’t take anymore.
What a glorious word!
I read that book of his a long time ago. Changed my life. Helped me so much
This actually helped. Those scriptures from Psalms at the end! And the other scriptures. Praise God.
What a great message...and that is EXACTLY what i needed to hear! Thankyou
Pr Wilkerson warns about the still small voice in one of his sermons. It was a great sermon but he was adamant about listening to what we believe to be THE STILL SMALL VOICE.
One prayer,eight words:🙏FOR ALL TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HOLY 🙏
